Man From Nigeria Tested For Ebola In The UK

A man has been tested for ebola in the uk – increasing fears over the threat posed to Britain from the deadly disease.

He was tested at a hospital in Birmingham after arriving back in the uk from nigeria via Paris.

Fortunately
the man was given the all-clear after tests, the Daily Mail reports,
but the scare has sharpened focus on the possible spread of the virus to
Britain.

Meanwhile, doctors fear ebola victim Patrick Sawyer may
have sparked a worldwide spread of the killer disease after being
allowed on two flights while infected.

And tonight a desperate race was on to find dozens of passengers who flew on the same jets as the 40-year-old American.

British doctors and border officials have been warned to be on the lookout for people in the uk showing signs of the disease.

Mr
Sawyer was allowed to board an ASKY Airlines flight in Liberia, where
ebola is rife, despite vomiting and suffering from ­diarrhoea. His
sister was recently killed by the virus.

Protection: The disease is a global threat

He
had a stopover in Ghana then changed planes in Togo and flew to the
international travel hub of Lagos in nigeria. The dad-of-three died five
days after arriving in the city.

Lancaster University virologist
Derek ­Gatherer said passengers, crew and airport ground staff who came
into contact with Mr Sawyer could be in “pretty serious danger”. ebola
is fatal in 90% of cases.

Doctors have identified 59 people who
were near him and have tested 20. But they are struggling to find the
others, who could have flown to anywhere in the world from Lagos.

There
were today questions over how Liberian government worker Mr Sawyer was
let on flights while clearly showing symptoms of ebola – which has
killed 672 people in Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone since it broke out
in February.

Experts from Public Health England have met uk
Border Agency officials to make sure staff are aware of the signs to
look for in ebola sufferers.

PHE has also used its national
medical alert system to advise all uk doctors to “remain vigilant for
unexplained illness in those who have visited the affected area”.
